Between 1975 and 1983 a new kind of film could be seen in French cinema: home-grown gay pornography. They were essentially the work of three production companies: Les Films de La Troika (Norbert Terry), AMT Productions (Anne-Marie Tensi) and Les Films du Vertbois (principally Jacques Scandelari). The genre met an untimely end with the advent of video, the last being made in 1983 'Mon Ami, Mon Amour (My Friend, my Lover)'.

Between 1975 and 1983 a new kind of film could be seen in French cinema : home-grown gay pornography. The films were shot in 16mm and most of them were passed and given certificates by the CNC (National Cinema Centre). They were screened in a small number of Parisian cinemas dedicated to gay pornographic films : Le Dragon, La Marotte and Le Hollywood Boulevard as well as several in the provinces. They were essentially the work of three production companies : Les Films de La Troïka (Norbert Terry), AMT Productions (Anne-Marie Tensi) and Les Films du Vertbois (principally Jacques Scandelari). The genre met an untimely end with the advent of video, the last being made in 1983 "Mon ami, mon amour (My friend, my lover)". Since then, gay pornography has not been screened in French cinemas. This film is the result of five years of painstaking research and investigation. It features extensive interviews with the directors and actors illustrated by numerous extracts from their films.

Chaleurs intimes
Claude Pierson
Brigitte Lahaie, Erika Cool
One of the first hardcore films of Brigette Lahaie. Still scared, she is made to go beyond her inhibitions; she gives her body and soul in front of the camera. Spectators will not be disappointed, for it is to them that she gives herself. A triumphant success for this film upon its release on May 25, 1977.

Bored and restless, Alice spends much of her time lusting after Jim, a local sawmill worker. When not lusting after him, Alice fills the hours with such pursuits as writing her name on a mirror with vaginal secretions and wandering the fields with her underwear around her ankles. And, in true teenaged tradition, she spends a lot of time writing in her diary.

In the form of an investigative report, Super Woman offers a dive into the world of transvestites and transsexuals who, in 1975, brightened up certain Parisian cabarets such as the Carrousel, the Etrier, the Alcazar or Chez Michou... The latter introduces us to two of its stars, Duduche and Fifi, who evokes his encounters with Sylvie Vartan, whom he imitates to perfection. Then an investigator goes to the Carrousel and meets Claudie, Laurence, Peggy, Albane, Griselleda, Maryline and Kristel.
